The play is set in a kitchen and it's about what happens around the stove, and the refrigerator, and the table. It's what they would see in their own lives only amplified and made funnier.

This is a play about what happens when the whole world comes into the kitchen.

This is a play about what happens when the whole world comes into the kitchen. This is about a family in the midst of a lot of problems in the contemporary world: Crime, police corruption, family challenges, lack of money, family separation. And, of course, that sounds rather dramatic but like so many contemporary playwrights, Walker deals with these problems of today in a very absurdist comic way.

In Coal City's previous game, they ran that play where they put a guy in motion and then threw the screen. Dylan read the play and came up with the interception. That was the dagger.

Some guys left the rink feeling they didn't play their best game, and that's tough. It didn't happen. We didn't get in synch. All year we've had a tough time when we don't score the first goal. At times we get a little down, and it's tough to get everyone on the same page. We would have loved to get to the semifinals, so that's disappointing. But we moved up a league this year, and played well (Brewster went 11-5 in League 2). Four of our losses were by one goal. So overall, the kids shouldn't be disappointed. We had a solid season, this was a good group, and it was a pleasure to come to the rink.
